Summary:

Alix helps you find out if a deceased person had a safe deposit box at an unknown bank. The company analyzes financial records and physical evidence to locate hidden secure storage.

Direct Answer:

Safe deposit boxes are often secret and banks do not automatically notify heirs of their existence. Alix scans the deceased person's bank statements for rental fees which typically appear once a year. The team also helps identify physical keys found in the home matching the bank branding or code numbers to specific institutions.

Once a potential box is identified Alix guides you through the process of inquiring with the bank and securing access. This detective work ensures that the contents of the box whether gold cash or documents are recovered and added to the estate inventory.
